St Helens' Kristian Woolf pleased by how his team 'stuck to their guns' in the victory over Wigan Warriors

His side produced a 22-4 victory at the Totally Wicked Stadium, to move two points clear of the Super League table.

Woolf states he was pleased by how his team were not frustrated during the early periods of the match and stuck to their game plan.

He said: “It was a great atmosphere, I loved just driving here to be honest and seeing how busy it was around town. It’s what footy is about, it’s a special occasion and I love the rivalry.

“We knew exactly what type of game it was going to be, and how physical and how fast. What I love about our group so much is, we encounter that every time. Every team wants to turn up and catch us out by surprise.

“When we got our opportunities, we took them.

"We had a couple of calls go against us, but that didn’t frustrate them or change anything. They just stuck to their guns and found the points they needed.

“We had a lot of things that didn’t go our way, and we needed our leaders to stand up.”
